The four legion commanders never expected that in the blink of an eye, this human would appear in another direction. They had been watching this strange furnace the entire time, waiting for Lin Fan to emerge. They hadn’t anticipated that this human could evade their gaze.
At that moment, First Legion Commander Gu Haitian sharply shouted, “Gu Zhantian, you go and hold that human back. We’ll suppress this treasure.”
Gu Haitian intended to refine the “Heavenly Earth Melting Furnace” at this moment. Although this treasure had already been controlled by the human, if the three of them acted together with their supreme power, they could forcefully seize and refine it.
“Alright,” Gu Zhantian nodded, “Just a human who has lost his protective treasure—I alone am enough to kill him.”
“Hmph! Wanting to seize my treasure? Dream on!” Lin Fan roared furiously. The Heavenly Earth Melting Furnace violently trembled, attempting to break through the obstruction and return to Lin Fan’s side.
“Seal it!”
The three legion commanders sneered coldly. Thousands of palms were struck out, each palm condensing into a thin line. Eventually, these lines densely wove into a massive net, directly enveloping the Heavenly Earth Melting Furnace. This small patch of heaven and earth was now sealed off by the three commanders.
Seeing this scene, Lin Fan revealed a faint smile on his face.
Finally, they had taken the bait.
But he still needed to give them a taste of pressure.
“This treasure can still resist?” The three legion commanders watched as the treasure continuously rammed against their seal. Each impact weakened their sealing power slightly.
“Now, refine it! Gu Zhantian, you deal with this human—kill him if you can, stall him if you can’t. Once we’ve refined this treasure, we’ll come assist you,” First Legion Commander Gu Haitian said. In an instant, he struck out millions of palm strikes, reinforcing the seal even further.
“Don’t worry. Just a single human—crushing him will be effortless,” Gu Zhantian coldly stared at Lin Fan, standing tall between heaven and earth.
At this moment, Gu Zhantian resembled a sword drawn from its sheath, his aura piercing through heaven and earth.
This aura was incredibly powerful. Ripples surged around his body, sharp beams slicing through the void.
Suddenly, a red spear appeared in Gu Zhantian’s hand.
“The Solar Sundering Soul Spear!”
This spear was engraved with mysterious runes, and on it were carved two blazing suns, as if the very suns of the sky had been plucked down and forged into the weapon.
A mid-grade Dao artifact—the Solar Sundering Soul Spear.
The moment Fourth Legion Commander Gu Zhantian grasped the Solar Sundering Soul Spear, his entire aura became even more unbreakable, like a sword that had finally left its sheath.
Tearing through the void, unstoppable, supreme.
“Human, you should feel honored. Never before has a lowly insect from the myriad races of the Great Thousand World forced me to wield the Solar Sundering Soul Spear. Today, I shall use your blood to temper my weapon,” Gu Zhantian coldly declared, staring at Lin Fan.
The Gu Clan truly lived up to its reputation, wielding Dao artifacts—mid-grade ones at that.
Lin Fan’s sole objective now was to suppress Gu Zhantian. If the four legion commanders united, even he would find it troublesome to deal with them.
And if Gu Zhantian possessed a mid-grade Dao artifact, then naturally the other three commanders did as well.
Lin Fan glanced at the experience he needed—it was minimal. Killing Gu Zhantian would allow him to level up, and with that, his strength would rise once again, presenting his opportunity.
“Die!” At this moment, Gu Zhantian’s eyes flared with brilliance. The Solar Sundering Soul Spear in his hand began to spin rapidly. The spearhead, invincible and unbreakable, tore through the void. Like a dragon, it trembled slightly, sending ripples outward. These waves expanded, growing denser and denser, eventually filling the entire void.
“Heaven Origin Strike!”
Gu Zhantian’s spear techniques were extremely advanced. This single move completely sealed off all of Lin Fan’s escape routes. Each of the countless waves around him carried the spear intent of the Solar Sundering Soul Spear.
“His power has increased even further. Gu Zhantian is using the Solar Sundering Soul Spear to unleash powerful spear techniques. He’s even stronger than when fighting barehanded,” Lin Fan’s expression turned grim. He clashed his Eternal Axe against the Solar Sundering Soul Spear. Even Lin Fan could sense that his strength was slightly inferior to Gu Zhantian’s.
“Feitian!”
Unbeknownst to others, Lin Fan had secretly hidden “Feitian” underground. Though he wasn’t sure if it would be effective, as long as it could distract Gu Zhantian, it would serve its purpose.
“Unexpectedly, you, a human, possess so many treasures. This axe of yours is particularly extraordinary,” Gu Zhantian’s face revealed a greedy expression. With a flick of his wrist, the spear spun, and the two blazing suns shot forth, attempting to suppress Lin Fan. However, at that very moment, the ground trembled slightly.
“What is that?” Gu Zhantian, a supreme expert at the peak of the Huangtian realm, possessed extraordinary senses. Not even the slightest movement could escape his notice, let alone the violent power of Feitian.
“Despicable!”
Gu Zhantian didn’t dare to be careless. With a violent shake of the Solar Sundering Soul Spear, he deflected the Eternal Axe and swiftly shifted his position.
Whoosh!
Feitian erupted forth in an instant—but missed.
Lin Fan remained calm, not in a hurry to kill Gu Zhantian. He extended a finger and pointed forward, causing the void to crack. Meanwhile, in secret, he subtly waved his hand, sending a wisp of white mist drifting into the void.
“Hmph! The human race is indeed despicable, but I’ve already seen through your tricks. Let’s see what other skills you have,” Gu Zhantian coldly sneered. In a single step forward, he merged with his spear, connecting heaven and earth. As he executed his spear techniques, he simultaneously activated various hidden techniques within the spear art.
If Lin Fan dared to counterattack, he would suffer devastating damage.
As Lin Fan exchanged blows with Gu Zhantian, he gradually became aware of his own shortcomings. Remaining calm, he slowly improved his techniques.
“Azure Heavens!”
“Annihilation!”
The Heaven-Sundering Three Techniques—though only two had been executed—the amount of true energy consumed was still immense.
“You’ve got some skill, but it’s still not enough,” Gu Zhantian’s eyes blazed with divine light. With a single sweeping strike of his spear, the void shattered completely.
“Solar Sundering Soul Spear, Ten Thousand Sounds to Oblivion!”
With a furious roar, Gu Zhantian unleashed his ultimate killing move. The three legion commanders, who had been desperately refining the Heavenly Earth Melting Furnace, saw Gu Zhantian’s decisive strike and couldn’t help but smirk.
It seemed the human’s end had finally come.
However, at that very moment, something unexpected occurred.
“What is this?” Suddenly, Gu Zhantian found his vision blurred by a strange mist. As he tried to dissipate it, he suddenly sensed something unusual within his body.
“Hehe, seems like it worked,” Lin Fan chuckled lightly. In an instant, he shot toward Gu Zhantian. His left hand was drawn behind him, and in his palm appeared a red brick.
“Apocalyptic Catastrophe Divine Fist!”
Lin Fan’s right hand clenched into a fist, his aura surging. A divine figure of apocalyptic calamity appeared above his fist, roaring with fury.
Gu Zhantian didn’t know what the bastard had done to him, but a strange force was now rampaging inside his body, attempting to seize control of his consciousness.
But how could he allow that? He immediately used a true method seed to suppress this unknown force, determined to kill this annoying human first.
“Die!” Gu Zhantian roared furiously. The Solar Sundering Soul Spear suddenly expanded in size, spanning across heaven and earth, charging toward Lin Fan.
Yet Lin Fan’s expression remained unchanged. He was about to meet the Solar Sundering Soul Spear head-on with his bare flesh.
Bang!
“How is this possible?” Gu Zhantian’s eyes widened in horror. How could this human’s physical body be so strong? The Solar Sundering Soul Spear had barely pierced a little before being blocked by an invisible force.
At that moment, Gu Zhantian suddenly changed expression. He noticed a sinister glint in the human’s eyes.
“The Great Red Brick of Doomsday, one brick to knock you down.”
Bang!
